Question

(2.2.c) checking the person: quiz
the check step in check—call—care is a check for safety and a check for—
○ an open airway.
○ signs of life.
○ consciousness.

Explanation:

In the Check - Call - Care protocol, the Check step first ensures the scene is safe (check for safety) and then checks if the person is conscious. Checking for consciousness is a fundamental part of the initial assessment. An open airway is part of the Care steps (like in CPR if needed), and signs of life (while related) are more about a broader assessment that may come after checking consciousness in the initial Check.

Answer:

Consciousness.
